Things I get nervous about in job interviews:

My bad posture
The prospect of being asked one of those ridiculous quick-fire ‘make the candidate think on her feet’ questions – examples: ‘Jaffa Cakes – cake or biscuit?’ and ‘tell me about a banana’
Excess sweating
Psychological tests – the ones where you have to tick lots of boxes and the results then get fed into a computer to reveal what your aptitudes really are. I imagine mine comes back with: skiving, surfing the net, daydreaming, reading novels… you get the picture
Being asked about my hobbies, see above
